5petals,
I dont think you get the point. Japan is not arguing that these sex workers ever existed. Japan is arguing the point if they were forced or not. I am sure there were some cases where few of these poor girls were tricked by the broker into becoming a sex trader ( sold by their parents etc) but Japan did not forcefully grab random girls out of the street. Japan is not ISIS you know...

Once I was in a taxi and found 6000yen in the back seat. My friends told me to keep the money since the money won't be returned to the owner anyways. My friends weren't Japanese except for 1. I wanted to return the money but I kept it and spent it.
I am American.

Does this have any political significance at all? I am wondering if the trip is just a personal trip and if so are they going to stop traffic for that?? In case of a personal trip please do consider the burden you will cause by stopping traffic, expenditure and etc...

Why don't they protest it in Tokyo... There is no point in protesting it in Taiji or NY where most of the Japanese people are not aware.

Posted in: Historic Kyoto temple first in Japan to offer gay weddings See in context
I think people are born gay so as a society we should accept that. But from natural selection point of view, gays are not normal because they are not wired to give birth to an offspring. It should be viewed as some kind of illness linked to the hormone and the brain which needs no treatment cause its not life threatning as well as there is no law that enforces to give birth. Gay people should have any kind of rights as straight people but as the same time the society should always view them as minorities with brain/hormonal mal function. Just because they have no apparent illness doesnt mean it is normal. Kudos to them for being proud of who they are.

I hate to say this, but I am not surprised. Japanese business ethics and quality are going down. Direct impact in global market is unpredictable.
It was in U.S, American CEO, some American management and some Japanese management. Who knows who is to blame? It could have been anyone.

Posted in: Japan must eliminate misogyny in workforce: UNDP chief See in context
I am all for equality in the workplace but why is it that the U.N or the IMF always talk about drawing more females in the workplace ( do they want more work slaves so they can get more $$$), instead of talking about having a good family plan or something? Some women do not want to work. Some men too.
